On the hard fast train, on the road to gain
Something gets right through to your telling bone
There's a sudden itch, an electric twitch
Sometimes I swear this body's got a mind of it's own

This is the naked truth, this is the light
There's only one place left to go

Auberge (Auberge)
Auberge (Auberge)

You meet the silent type on a windy trail
With a shiny cloak and an unseen silver dagger
You can talk till you ache, give yourself one more break
You can tell by the look on his face that it just doesn't matter

'Cause this is the naked truth and this is the light
There's only one place left to go

Auberge (Auberge)
Auberge (Auberge)

Oh, give me a weekend, give me a day
Don't like what I'm seeing though I hear what you say
Think with a dagger and you'll die on your knees
Begging for mercy, singing: Please, Mister, please

'Cause this is the naked truth and this is the light
But there's only one place left to go

Auberge, Auberge
Auberge (Auberge)
Auberge, Auberge
Auberge, Auberge
(Auberge, Auberge)
(Auberge)

I'm gone fishing
I got me a line
Nothing I do is gonna make the difference
So I'm taking the time

And you ain't never gonna be happy
Anyhow, anyway
So I'm gone fishing
And I'm going today

I'm gone fishing
Sounds crazy I know
I know nothing about fishing
But just watch me go

And when my time has come
I will look back and see
Peace on the shoreline
That could have been me

You can waste a whole lifetime
Trying to be
What you think is expected of you
But you'll never be free

May as well go fishing




. . .


You can feel your nerve endings
They've been dead before today
You can feel them rising
Feel them rising all the way

You've got grease on your fingers
oil on your face
Happy completely chasing the pace
Happy to find out even this late
You're not a number

There's a new sense of freedom
Come banging on your door
Deep down inside you
You've seen it all somewhere before
Somewhere in the past
Somewhere in a dream
It's got you completely
And you know what it means
Happy to find out even this late
You're not a number

There's a new sense of freedom
Come banging on your door
Deep down inside you
You've seen it all somewhere before
You've got grease on your fingers
oil on your face
Happy completely chasing the pace
Happy to find out even this late
You're not a number



. . .


I see a turning wheel
On a dusty track
Caught in the void and empty space
In between there and back
And the paradise of going somewhere
That's still so far away
Happy, boy you bet I am
Holding on to this smile for just as long as I can

Heaven

It's all bright in front
And it's all dark behind
Living for the now that's in between the bridges
and the signs
And getting there is still a long long way to go
While the others dream a wish
This is everything I officially need to know
Happy, boy you bet I am
Holding on to this smile for just as long as I can

Heaven




. . .


Wake up
See the morning light
This is you
This is today
You try so hard to get it right
Can't help thinking somewhere you've lost your way
When was the last time
You saw a smile?
There's a scream on every silent face you see
They're singing set me free

I got a friend who burns like a fire
Says there's only thing you'll ever know
It's out there somewhere
Way past the sunset line
Way out on the open road

And me I'm always looking down
Down that road out of town
Each morning and night you can see me
I'm singing set me free
Set me free

Goodnight Auberge
I leave you now
You must sleep while I work the day
till I return
To dream of you
Through the night
And that free, freeway




. . .


I was born a beggar
With the garbage round my feet
The devil lived in every hole
And every corner of the street
When misery is all there is
You got nothing to lose
So come on and buy me
Come on and buy me
Some red, red, red shoes

Don't tell me what I do is wrong
Don't preach 'cos you don't know
'Cos I was left without a chance
Such a long time ago
And anything is better
Than being cut and bruised
So come on and buy me
Some red, red, red shoes
Don't tell me what I do is wrong
Don't preach 'cos you don't know
'Cos I was left without a chance
Such a long time ago
And anything is better
Than being battered and bruised
So come on and buy me
Some red, red, red shoes


. . .


Sing a song of love to me
As the shadow starts to grow
And I won't be sad and lonely anymore

'Cause if you sing a song of love to me
I will always find a smile
That will warm my cold, cold heart
Just for awhile

Songs of love i know so well
Yea I've seen some days and had some times
Lucky boy i can hear you say
You think my sun does nothing but shine

So sing a song of love to me
One more time before I go
And i won't be sad and lonely
No I won't be sad and lonely
Anymore





. . .


Every second counts
That's what he says
Every second counts
Every single day
All through the night time
And all through the day time
Can't let your world pass through and in to my way
Every second counts
He can't slow down
Every second counts
See his spin around
He's chasing his shadow
He's racing the wind
He tells us to follow
Where the ice is so thin

I hope you're holding on
I hope you're holding on
'Cos every second counts




. . .


Look deep INTO the April face
A change is clearly taking place
Looking for the summer

The eyes take on a certain gaze
And leave behind the springtime days
Go looking for the summer

This ain't no game of kiss and tell
The implications how you KNEW so well
Go looking for the summer

The time has come and they must go
To play the passion out that haunts you so
Looking for the summer

Remember love how it was the same
We scratched and hurt each OTHER'S growing pains
We were looking for the summer

And still I stand this very day
With a burning wish to fly away
I'm still looking, looking for the summer




. . .


And you my love


I do not sleep tonight
I may not ever
The sins of the past have come
See how they sit down together

Outside my window
Outside my door
And I know the reason what they've all come here for
You my love
My sweet, sweet love
Are what it's all because of

Surrender is easy
I know you do me no harm
But your innocence haunts me
The most fatal of charms

Oh I must have done some wrong
On a dark and distant day
For I know full and well tonight
This is how that I must pay

And you my love
My sweet, sweet love
Are what it's all because of
You my love
My sweet, sweet love
Are what it's all because of



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


. . .


Time goes by
And every single tear
It must have well run dry
And the lonely nights
Become a strange accepted way

And the years go past
Just like the old song says
The pain with time has healed
It could not last

But oh a friend
Like a fool mentions your name

Sunny days, drunken nights
You smile and say It's all right
But oh the cold, cold rain
At the mention of your name

Forgive me please
If I shrug my shoulders
When I put my friends at ease
As I get older
It's not that I don't feel colder than before
Oh I've become so good at hiding
What I feel without confiding
It's still the same
At the mention of your name
